In very rare cases, an NFS READ operation might predict that the non-payload part of the RPC Call is large. For instance, an NFSv4 COMPOUND with a large GETATTR result, in combination with a large Kerberos credential, could push the non-payload part to be several kilobytes. If the non-payload part is larger than the connection's inline threshold, the client is required to provision a Reply chunk. The current Linux client does not check for this case. There are two obvious ways to handle it: a. Provision a Write chunk for the payload and a Reply chunk for the non-payload part b. Provision a Reply chunk for the whole RPC Reply Some testing at a recent NFS bake-a-thon showed that servers can mostly handle a. but there are some corner cases that do not work yet. b. already works (it has to, to handle krb5i/p), but could be somewhat less efficient. However, I expect this scenario to be very rare -- no-one has reported a problem yet. So I'm going to implement b. Sometime later I will provide some patches to help make b. a little more efficient by more carefully choosing the Reply chunk's segment sizes to ensure the payload is optimally aligned.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
